Dendrobium Michel Vallee

A spectacular primary hybrid crossing Den. subuliferum with Den. vexillarius, producing fine, tufted stems with narrow, grass-like foliage. The incredibly long-lasting flowers emerge in clusters from the upper nodes of the pseudobulbs, creating a vibrant and exceptionally striking floral display that instantly appeals to any orchid enthusiast.

• Light: Bright indirect light to filtered morning sun; strong light levels promote sturdy growth and encourage successful blooming.
• Temperature: 55–79°F (13–26°C); a cool to intermediate grower that thrives with a noticeable drop in night temperatures.
• Humidity: 70–85%; high and stable atmospheric moisture combined with constant, gentle ventilation ensures healthy development.
• Watering: Water regularly to keep the growing medium consistently damp; ensure exceptional drainage so the fine roots never stagnate.

Additional Notes

Growing this miniature-statured plant in a small net pot with high-quality sphagnum moss beautifully showcases its small-sized, long-lived blossoms. Ships bare root, well established, and requires a gentle rehydration at an intermediate temperature before final potting upon arrival.
